Combination therapy of basal-cell carcinoma in 31-year-old patient with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome - case study

Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is a rare genetic disease that is manifested in a number of disorders concerning the skin, skeleton, cardiovascular and nervous systems. Various defects which can be observed at first contact with a patient visiting a dermatologist or dentist may help to diagnose this syndrome. Frequent problems with odontogenic cysts and metastatic basal-cell carcinomas result in patients being under the constant care of a specialist. This short study presents the case of 31-year-old patient with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome treated with combination therapy using CO2 laser and photodynamic therapy.
